System configuration

Indexing configuration

The indexing configuration contains the parameters that relate to search and indexing.

  • Where Vidispine can reach Solr or ZooKeeper.
  • When to commit or soft commit.
  • The Solr query request parameters.
  • The default field settings.

This configuration replaces the configuration properties listed under Search and indexing.

Example

Full text indexing could be disabled for all fields, unless explicitly specified for a field, using:

<IndexingConfigurationDocument xmlns="http://xml.vidispine.com/schema/vidispine">
  <solrPath>http://localhost:8088/solr</solrPath>
  <fieldDefault>
    <name>*</name>
    <fullText>false</fullText>
  </fieldDefault>
</IndexingConfigurationDocument>

Metrics configuration

See StatsD on how to configure how metrics are sent to StatsD. The configuration resource is described at Metrics settings.

FTP pool configuration

By default jobs that need to read or write to an FTP server will establish, use and end separate connections to the server. By configuring a FTP connection pool you can change so that the jobs share and reuse FTP connections. This can reduce the time it takes to transfer files over high latency connections.

For example, to create a connection pool with the default settings:

PUT /configuration/ftp-pool
Content-Type: application/xml

<FtpPoolConfigurationDocument xmlns="http://xml.vidispine.com/schema/vidispine">
  <pool/>
<FtpPoolConfigurationDocument/>

If no pool is specified then pooling will be disabled. Unless overridden, the pool will be unbounded, and connections will expire after 1 minute. That is, the above configuration is identical to:

PUT /configuration/ftp-pool
Content-Type: application/xml

<FtpPoolConfigurationDocument xmlns="http://xml.vidispine.com/schema/vidispine">
  <pool>
    <minSize>0</minSize>
    <maxSize>-1</maxSize>
    <evictionInterval>30000</evictionInterval>
    <minIdleTime>60000</minIdleTime>
  </pool>
<FtpPoolConfigurationDocument/>

The FTP pool configuration resource is described at FTP pool configuration.

Database purging

Vidispine supports mechanisms for purging old information in database tables. Especially four tables can grow quite large without purging enabled.

Updated method for purging configuration

The preferred way of updating the database purging configuration is by create a DatabasePurgingConfigurationDocument, see Database purging configuration.

Change-log table

The change-log table holds information about data that should be sent to other sites. If multi-site is disabled (disableSiteCrunching), this table grows forever.

To enable purging of the table, two configuration properties are used: changeLogPurgingTime and changeLogForcePurgingTime. The first one controls deletion of entries that have been processed, the other one controls deletion of entries regardless of state.

Sensible values are 43200 and 86400, corresponding to one and two months, respectively.

Configuration can also be controlled via DatabasePurgingConfigurationDocument. For example:

<DatabasePurgingConfigurationDocument xmlns="http://xml.vidispine.com/schema/vidispine">
  <changeLog>
    <age>43200</age>
    <forceAge>86400</forceAge>
  </changeLog>
</DatabasePurgingConfigurationDocument>

Audit trail table

The audit trail table contains all API requests, see Audit trails.

To enable purging of the table, two configuration properties are used: auditTrailPurgingTime and auditTrailPurgingDirectory. Both must be set in order for purging to take place.

When purging is enabled, entries that are older than auditTrailPurgingTime minutes will be removed and put in a file inside the auditTrailPurgingDirectory folder.

A sensible value is 43200 or higher, corresponding to one month.

Configuration can also be controlled via DatabasePurgingConfigurationDocument. For example:

<DatabasePurgingConfigurationDocument xmlns="http://xml.vidispine.com/schema/vidispine">
  <auditTrail>
    <age>43200</age>
    <uri>s3://key:secret@archival-bucket/requests/</uri>
  </auditTrail>
</DatabasePurgingConfigurationDocument>

By setting the compress element in the configuration document, entries will be stored using gzip compression. The default value is true.

The entries are stored in batches. The number of entries per batch is controlled by the batch element in the configuration document. The default value is 10000 entries. If there are less than 10000 entries that fulfill the time criteria, the purging of the audit trail table will pause.

By setting the body element in the configuration document, entries will also include the request bodies and response codes. The default value is false.

The directory can be a full URI, such as a S3 or FTP location.

Job table

To enable purging of the table, two configuration properties are used: jobPurgingTime and jobPurgingDirectory. Both must be set in order for purging to take place.

When purging is enabled, entries that are older than jobPurgingTime minutes will be removed and put in a file inside the jobPurgingDirectory folder.

Configuration can also be controlled via DatabasePurgingConfigurationDocument. For example:

<DatabasePurgingConfigurationDocument xmlns="http://xml.vidispine.com/schema/vidispine">
  <job>
    <age>43200</age>
    <uri>s3://key:secret@archival-bucket/job/</uri>
  </job>
</DatabasePurgingConfigurationDocument>

By setting the compress element in the configuration document, entries will be stored using gzip compression. The default value is true.

The directory can be a full URI, such as a S3 or FTP location.

Transfer log table

Configuration is controlled via DatabasePurgingConfigurationDocument. For example:

<DatabasePurgingConfigurationDocument xmlns="http://xml.vidispine.com/schema/vidispine">
  <transferLog>
    <age>1440</age>
    <uri>s3://key:secret@archival-bucket/transfers/</uri>
  </transferLog>
</DatabasePurgingConfigurationDocument>

Both the age and uri element has to be set. Entries than represents a finished transfer older than age minutes are exported to the destination.

The forceAge element controls exports of non-finished transfers - transfers that have disappeared for some reason. The default value of forceAge is the value of the age element.

By setting the compress element in the configuration document, entries will be stored using gzip compression. The default value is true.

The entries are stored in batches. The number of entries per batch is controlled by the batch element in the configuration document. The default value is 10000 entries. If there are less than 10000 entries that fulfill the time criteria, the purging of the transfer log table will pause.

CORS configuration

New in version 4.15.

Vidispine can be configured to emit Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) headers.

The CORS configuration is set using the CORS configuration resource. The configuration document consists of a number of entries, each of them are checked for CORS evaluation. If an entry condition matches the incoming request, the CORS headers set in the entry are outputted, and no other entries are matched. For example:

PUT /configuration/cors

<CORSConfigurationDocument xmlns="http://xml.vidispine.com/schema/vidispine">
  <entry>
    <request/>
    <response>
      <allowOrigin>*</allowOrigin>
    </response>
  </entry>
</CORSConfigurationDocument>

The conditions in each entry can match HTTP method, the request path, the CORS origin, or any other header. For example:

<CORSConfigurationDocument xmlns="http://xml.vidispine.com/schema/vidispine">
  <entry>
    <request>
      <pathRegex>API.*/item/.*</pathRegex>
      <headerRegex>
        <key>connection</key>
        <value>.*aliv.*</value>
      </headerRegex>
    </request>
    <response>
      <allowOrigin>*</allowOrigin>
      <allowMaxAge>86400</allowMaxAge>
    </response>
  </entry>
</CORSConfigurationDocument>

Semantics are as follows.

  • Multiple methods can be set per entry. If one entry method matches the request method, the entry matches as far as for method. If no methods are set on the entry, the entry matches.
  • Origins can be specified both exact or via regular expressions. If one entry origin matches the request origin, the entry matches as far as for origin. If no origins are set on the entry, the entry matches.
  • Request paths can be specified via regular expressions. If one entry path matches the request path, the entry matches as far as for path. If no paths are set on the entry, the entry matches.
  • Request headers can be specified via regular expressions. All specified headers for the entry must match the request. If the HTTP request does not contain a value for a specified header, the entry does not match. If the HTTP request contains multiple values for a specified header, it is sufficient that only one value matched the entry header condition.

When the entry matches, the entry may contain which origin that is allowed, the max age for the access, which methods that are allowed, which HTTP headers. The entry can also contain other, arbitrary, headers. If methods are not specified, the methods are automatically deduced from the API methods.

File system

Tip

Since 4.1.1, several of the stat system calls that was made by the JRE has been migrated into call in the JNI code. This can be enabled using the localFSTimeData option. On systems where local file systems are sensitive to stat loads, it is recommended to enable this option, and possibly the statsPerSecond option.

Example:0
fileSequenceStart

The starting number for file sequences.

Example:0, 0001
Default:1
thumbnailHierarchy
